so you guys are saying that a black guy wouldn't be seen in the same light? the issues are the same on both ends.

those are politics. I know a few Indians myself. people might talk behind one another's backs but really those issues aren't that big. they're just blown out of proportion. we share about 95% of the language and culture, but not the religion.

I'm not going to get caught up in ignorance, and definitely not calling anyone out for it; I've been corrected on a bunch of stuff over the years being here. I'm not perfect. I know I know.. it's crazy.

When I was wrong on things, or wasn't wording it right, or hell, I just didn't know.. I don't mind being corrected and informed by others. On that token, I don't mind trying to help others in the same way.

yea but there's a difference btw being corrected and accepting it and being corrected it and sticking to your blatantly wrong statement.

it's funny that you're trying to insinuate that there's more crime and fear in Pakistan but you're ignorant of what it is like there. we don't fear approaching people there, people don't need guns to defend themselves from others. we don't have one of the highest crime rates, rapes, murders, killing sprees, organized gangs or drug cartels in the world.

the reason we came here was for education, opportunity and money. but i was much happier back there.

i didn't fear anyone, i didn't fear to send my children to schools.

i have thought about living back there but the wars caused by the US which has caused Taliban to retaliate against the Pakistanis has made it difficult for me to move back there. but i still consider it.

i have spoken to my wife about moving to India instead...her motherland. i have thought about moving to eastern Asia as well. lots of opportunities there. i plan to move out of here someday. Canada seems like the best and more realistic option but my wife doesn't like the weather there and she's raised here so she doesn't see what i do.

but thanks for the comment though, i expect nothing less from you lol.

I think you have a nostalgic view of pakistan/south asia that doesn't line up with the reality of what it is today.

this is what I'll say on this deal. I think I've gathered from previous posts that Sufi isn't from America. on that note, I think he might have a better view of certain countries than someone inside America does. our history/media is EXTREMELY skewed to where we aren't the bad guys we're the savior a blah blah blah. it's westernized thought process and indoctrination. it took me until I hit college to see it, but it does happen. not saying you're right or he's right, but he might have a better viewpoint

Why do you assume I don't posses or have access to the same viewpoint?

Also what makes you think I listen to/bother with the US media (especially on international issues)?

if you're saying that one race gets better treatment in the media than the other than how you different than the ones that are so quick to make everything a racial problem?

Because I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of the likes of Sharpton and the media.

How am I better? I want equality for everyone. The fact that you have to ask that question is, I find, extraordinarily offensive. A crime is a crime regardless of skin color, but we only seem to care about the stories that involve white(ish) on black crime.

There is no outcry for black on black crime, white on white or seemingly back on white. Just white on black.

I could give a rats ass about Zimmerman, what I'm concerned with objective factual analysis and this entire trial (and everything leading up to it) has been everything but that. The media and politicians saw to that.

Yeah. Dropping out of this discussion. Put my two cents in but if people on here want to ACT like they KNOW something as fact and ignore the fact that ALL 6 jurors that sat through the WHOLE trial WITHOUT MEDIA distorting the facts of this case and speculating and twisting evidence and preaching to people ALL believed he was NOT GUILTY. Justice was served. Zimmerman has to live with it the rest of his life and I feel sad for all affected...but to point out this case as somehow MORE IMPORTANT or ANY DIFFERENT than almost any other case out there is just feeding into the media frenzy and PROMOTING racial ignorance.

As for living in other countries I thank GOD every night I was priviledged enough to be born here where I can work, pray, worship, raise a family, and protest in the street without being shot. No other country in the world allows for the freedoms I have....the bill of rights...the constitution and inherent freedoms we have here. Anyone can enjoy living somewhere else I don't have a problem but people here DO NOT live in the same fears as in most countries of the world. A minority here doesn't fear their church will be burned down and them pulled out in the street and murdered for being a christian. Or bombed for being a muslim...or hindu or beaten or shot in the face for standing up for women or raped by dozens in broad day light and the govt turn away and ignore it. Where a woman can't walk without her husband and well I could go on. The world can be a sad place but I'm a happy person because I have a personal relationship with the one in control and know that I have peace in this world and the next.

Did you racial profile Zimmerman like the media did? Did you think he was white? He isn't. Fact is it is NOT illegal for citizens to racial profile! Zimmerman KNOWS the people living in his community. He knows this stranger cutting through his community and hanging out close to the buildings DIDN'T belong. So he checked it out. Trayvon had every opportunity to stop this thing..to avoid it. He NEVER at anytime had the right to put his hands on the guy....nor break his nose...and proceed to bash his brains out the back of his skull by smashing it against the concrete. I blame the prosecution too...they should have NEVER brought it to trial. It had no chance....all the evidence supported Zimmerman....all the eye witnesses SUPPORTED Zimmerman....you are looking for something that wasn't there. A terrible tragedy that no one wishes would have happened but it did. Goes to show you should think before you act....BOTH WAYS. Think before you throw a punch...before you try to kill a guy by beating his brains out. Think before you confront someone as well....be able to handle yourself so you are not so easily overpowered to have to result to a gun. I just think this is all political...all media enduced. Those that throw race in....should consider it without race involved. Just take the facts....what if it was a woman that confronted him...and got her brains smashed in. What if it was an asian man or woman...a black man or woman...a white man or woman...no it was a hispanic man that did it. It was a sad thing that happened...it shouldn't have...but it was BOTH peoples fault.

1. No I did not racially profile George Zimmerman like the media did. Nice assumption there, i'll give you a C+ for effort. He is HALF white and HALF Hispanic he is a mixed man. I know it's not illegal to racially profile someone. It's still a moronic thing to do on Zimmerman's behalf since Trayvon didn't do anything wrong (Im not talking about the confrontation between the two im talking about Trayvon buying snacks and walking home).

2. I find it funny you're calling Trayvon a "stranger" lmao.....Wouldn't Zimmerman be a stranger to Trayvon during the confrontation between them? Trayvon had every right to be in that neighborhood since his father was staying there with an unnamed women. You're acting like he hung out there for no apparent reason or slinging crack in one of the housing complexes lmao. Also, Trayvon was walking on route to where he was staying and started to cut through a different area when he spotted Zimmerman looking at him. He was not "hanging out close to the buildings DIDN'T belong" like you claim.I think he continued walking east which was still in the same direction to his Father's place.

You're acting as if that area in which Zimmerman was living was his godforsaken child. Trayvon had a FAMILY member living there and therefore he had EVERY right to be there. I live in Toronto, I got an uncle living in the other side of the city. I stayed at his place before and bought stuff at his local Tim Hortons. Even though I don't live there I have every right to be there and to walk BACK to his apartment. Ain't no resident there should approach/stalk/harass me for walking in a area that my Uncle lives in. Same applied to Trayvon.

George Zimmerman was not on his neighborhood watch duties at the time of the Trayvon incident. He tried to act like a vigilante.

3. Save me the "oooh Trayvon was beating poor ol' Geroge senselessly". We don't know who initiated the physical confrontation. It could have been Trayvon...it could have been Zimmerman.

I do blame the media for successfully playing with the people's emotion. However, the did not sway my opinion. I think he had no right to follow Trayvon (don't care if he is legally allowed to do so). He followed a $#@!ing 17 year old that only bought a bag of skittles and a drink......in the end of the day all of this could have been avoided if he wasn't trying to be a vigilante....if Trayvon did start the physical confrontation then of course part of the blame would be on him...but we don't know that yet.

So it's the prosecution fault now? What's next, it the jury fault? Maybe it gun control?
How the $#@! are they suppose to present a better case WITH NOTHING, other than "skittle" and "17 year old boy" argument?

You can't convict someone of 2nd degree murder with just "Philadelphia" movie lines.
The jury knew this and they were all woman, and some of them have children of their own.

What are you crying about? Did I mention gun laws? Did I mention the jurors? What I did say was I personally believe the prosecution didn't present the case well. I know it's your ignorance speaking when you only think the prosecution had was $#@! about skittles or Trayvon being 17 years old

I've yet to see Obama say anything about a black man killing a white baby.

The baby must have did something to deserve it. Or hell, maybe its very existence was racist. It's how Racist Hypocrite Sharpton sees it and I'm sure Obama sees it that way too. And don't forget our Attorney Assassin-Gun-Runner General Eric Holder.
